My Gift

As I close my eyes and say my final good night,
I pray you'll remember all our good times as a light.

A light that can guide you through this dark time and hour,
When the family needs you most, to be a strong tower.

While my physical presents may no longer exist,
Just open this gift that I've sealed with a kiss.

This gift of love, happiness and delight,
Just open your heart and let out my light.
